LC: Accrington Stanley Nil-Nil (6-5 on Penalty Kicks)

First - let it be known that Wikipedia scooped both the BBC and Watford's own site which was down most of the match. We went in with the reserves but nearly didn't come out. It shouldn't be that close playing a squad three leagues down (think Cubs vs. Arkansas Travelers - well maybe a bad example). Upsets happen - witness Crewe's 2-0 victory over another recently promoted Premier League team and finalist in last year's League Cup, Wigan.

More bad news as well as L*t*n Town took Brentford 3-0. The silver lining: Barnett was sent off with a red card.

Next fixture is Saturday away at the aforementioned Wigan (Greater Manchester) at JJB Stadium at 9:00 (yes, I double-checked, 15:00 - 6 hours = 9:00) St. Louis time.
